Co-design in healthcare with and for First Nations Peoples of the land now known as Australia: a narrative review.

Increasing use of co-design concepts and buzzwords create risk of generating 'co-design branded' healthcare research and healthcare system design involving insincere, contrived, coercive engagement with First Nations Peoples. There are concerns that inauthenticity in co-design will further perpetuate and ingrain harms inbuilt to colonial systems.Co-design is a tool that inherently must truly reposition power to First Nations Peoples, engendering both respect and ownership.

Determining health professional students' self-perceived cultural capability following participation in clinical placement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples: A systematic review.

Background: Collective evaluation of studies assessing students' self-perceived cultural capability following clinical placement is required to help inform future cultural capability training for both university and healthcare service environments. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review was to evaluate studies investigating health professional students' self-perceived cultural capability following participation in a clinical placement with First Nations Peoples.

Methods: Electronic database searchers were conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, AMED, PsychINFO, Pubmed, CINAHL and Informit.

The Effect of Overweight/Obesity on Cutaneous Microvascular Reactivity as Measured by Laser-Doppler Fluxmetry: A Systematic Review.

Introduction: We sought to determine by systematic review the independent effect of overweight/obesity on cutaneous microvascular reactivity in adults as measured by laser-Doppler fluxmetry.

Methods: CINAHL Complete, SPORTSDiscus, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane Library were searched until March 2024 to identify studies investigating cutaneous microvascular reactivity in an overweight/obese but otherwise healthy group versus a lean/healthy weight. Reporting is consistent with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement.

The composition and mode of delivery of diabetes-related footcare education provided by podiatrists in Australia and Aotearoa (New Zealand): A systematic review.

Introduction: Diabetes-related foot disease (DFD) is a significant and costly complication of diabetes in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ). Diabetes footcare education is considered a cornerstone of DFD prevention and management, with podiatrists playing a key role in education provision. This systematic review evaluated the nature and composition of diabetes footcare education provided by podiatrists to people living with diabetes in Australia and NZ.

Toe-brachial index and toe systolic blood pressure for the diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease.

Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) of the lower limbs is caused by atherosclerotic occlusive disease in which narrowing of arteries reduces blood flow to the lower limbs. PAD is common; it is estimated to affect 236 million individuals worldwide. Advanced age, smoking, hypertension, diabetes and concomitant cardiovascular disease are common factors associated with increased risk of PAD.
